I was born in May 1977 and am married with twin children. I live in a small city (around 6,000 people) near Brest city. I also lived for two years in the Republic of Djibouti where my call sign was J28VS (from 2000 to 2002). I have been a ham since 1998 and have activated some countries (Fiji island 3D2VS and Rotuma Island 3D2VS/P). I work all major contests from TM6M radio club F6KHM in Brest.
The WRTC is a great experience, and I am very happy to have been selected. I look forward to meeting some of the best contesters. Thank you to my friend F8CMF for agreeing to be my teammate and thank you, organizers of the WRTC, for your work. See you in July 2018.

I'm 34 year old and I was first licensed in 1995 at the age of 13 (FB1CMF). I then had to wait 3 years to reach the age required to get the extra class license (F8CMF). I quickly became interesting in DXing and contesting on the HF Bands.
I then started focusing my effort on building an SO2R station with a single tower at my home QTH. During the past years I also operated from FY5KE, 4U1ITU, TM0HQ, TM2Y, TM6M and TM1X during major contests. Favorite modes are SSB and CW.
This will be my second participation in the WRTC. First WRTC was in Boston in 2014.
